Hello all!!
ill make my official introduction once i take delivery on my 23 IS350. status right now is transit from port. SA updated me and said the car should be at long beach next week and 1-2 weeks to my dealership. my family has been using the same SA for 20 years. no mark up, no dealer added packages. I have yet to see incognito in the flesh but thats the color i went with.

I just don’t get it. When did ‘primer’ become so popular? Maybe I’m just too old, or maybe folks are too young to have seen junkers running around with only primer on them.

I think making it the same color as primer, but with a nice, proper paint finish, is kind of a flex.

It could also just be a shade of gray that's in fashion, nothing too tricky about that.

i think audi hit a home run when it came out with nardo grey. ive love that shade of grey ever since. even other car manufacture version of it. is it "played" out. perhaps. prob played out a for few years.. but i still like it. such a shame that nardo was a free color on the RS models, now it cost like 5K.. i no longer have the m3, but ill take better pics side by side comparison of incognito to nardo when my car is delivered.

White black gray and silver are ALL played out and yet people keep buying them. But people date and marry ugly people all the time too. Who knows why.

I don’t know where you all are getting your info that the 2023 350 F sport comes with black window trim. It was always chrome for 2022 and I assume it will be chrome for 2023.

Only the IS500 got the smoked window trim, smoked not a full dark blacked out trim but smoked.

In the RELATED IMAGES section, there's a photo of an IS 350 F Sport in Iridium with blacked-out window trim.

thanks for the pic. how does it look in real life? not going to lie, pic doesnt look to flattering. prob rather have full incognito.. hopefully when i see it in person it i will be blown away. btw im 2nd on the waiting list at my local audi dealership for the new rs3 order. its roughly a 12K difference between the 2 cars. if i had to guess im 80% sure i will stick with the is350.
